ABOUT THE YAYASAN

YAYASAN TUN ABDUL HAMID was established on 09 November 1996 as a tax exempt charitable foundation, as a result of donations contributed by members of the public, to honour the Yayasan’s founder, Yang Amat Arif Tun Dato’ Seri Hj Abdul Hamid bin Hj Omar, upon his retirement as the First Chief Justice of Malaysia in 1994.

The main objects of the Yayasan are primarily in furtherance of legal education, including the provision of financial assistance for impoverished students of Law and Law related studies, as well as a secondary mission to organise and carry out schemes towards the relief of human suffering and improvement of the standard of human life.

SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

Although Yayasan Tun Abdul Hamid’s main objects are primarily in the furtherance of legal education, legal research and the provision of free legal services & facilities, the Yayasan has occasionally donated to several other charitable causes since its inception.
